Yep - happy with the way they turned out.

Need to get back to work on this project. Too many other distractions when you're retired.... :-)

I am collecting parts for a 'race-kit' CYB 72 project which will be identical 1961 machine to this one but I am still missing one or two details for it.

I have two left hand early style footpeg hangers for the CYB but no rights. If you happen to have a RHS version out there in Honda land I would be very interested.

Also proving dfficult is the bracket which attaches to the front forks for mounting the race number 'oval'. Any leads woukd be appreciated.

Hi Graham,
I have a r/h footrest bracket that I think is an early one, it is narrower section than later ones and has been welded but needs fettling and maybe a bit of straightening. It's yours if you need it.
Cheers Al.

Hi G,
Did the footrest bracket arrive and is it an early one?
Regards Al.

Hi Al

It did (apologies for not thanking you) but it is a later one, unfortunately.

I've been on my travels this week, so sorry for not getting back to you, mate.

Cheers
